Oxbow LagoonAs summer wanes, a Mute Swan patrols its home on Oxbow Lagoon. The phrase "swan song" refers to this particular type of swan. The legend says these swans are utterly silent all of their lives until the last moment. And then, just before dying, they sing out one achingly beautiful song. In reality, Mute Swans are not completely silent.Note: This and the preceding Saugatuck Dunes are sized to make a perfect pair.
Frozen in TimeThe steam tug "Reiss" was trying to leave town a few years ago, but after running aground it could get no further than where it sits today. Fate ruled... and its destiny is now to stick around as a curiosity and tourist attraction on Lake Kalamazoo.
Tiny DancersWith the surrounding sands freshly reset by rain, marram grasses at Oval Beach use the breeze to trace out their territory.
White Pine on Oxbow LagoonOne of the remaining majestic White Pines. Native Americans called these giants "whispering pines." White Pine once dominated our woods and allowed the heyday of the lumber industry. Within 20 years, from 1870 to 1890, most were cut. Michigan lumber helped build this country, but the trees are now gone. With respect for their role in history, White Pine is designated Michigan's state tree.
Go Take a HikeIf you want to see the Lake or the Dunes in Saugatuck Dunes State Park, it takes a bit of effort. There's a payoff though, every step of the way.
